    Gaining weight

    Where is your diet plan they gave you after surgery? You need beef and pork because you need protein and a little fat. The two shakes and one low carb meal suggestions are the best!

    I'm unsupportive, but I want to be....

    It is not that bod or dangerous a surgery if that reassures you any. Had mine Tuesday came home Wednesday and ready to go back to work on Monday. You will probably see him and future kids you have much sicker and requires more care than this.

    Over a year, didn't reach goal, gained weight

    Where I had my surgery I have to attend support group once a month for two years. Doesn't anyone else have these requirements? I had to sign a contract. There are people there post op seven years and some are pre op. It is amazing how it helps. You should also have a patient advocate that came with your surgery and is free forever .

    37 hours post op

    I hate liquids right now! Loved water before but now I can feel every drop hit my stomach. Also having to have half of the 96 ounces be drinks with electrolytes is awful because I can't stand any thing sweet. Protein shakes don't count either.
  19. I had to have six months education and tests at the Bariatric center, even had to see a psychiatrist. Plus support group once a month before and for two years after. Quality surgeon and team. They let no one rush into it. That is the kind of doctor people should look for

    protein powers/shakes

    We have a herb a life shake shop nearby and I can get them made to order. Also use the powder at home Just be careful not to put a lot of stuff with sugar etc bananas are the Snickers of fruit [emoji529][emoji529]

    Non sugar dumping syndrome?
